Whisky Whiskey is a video podcast about my exploration of Whisky in all of its forms.
The ‘Wee Beastie’ was initially released to the market in 2020 making it Ardbeg’s most recent mainline entry into their Core Range. Some look at it’s price point and smile, whilst others turn up their nose at being less than 10 years in age. The real question is…is it any good? Let’s see shall we?

Welcome to Cheap Week! With a strict budget of $50 or less for a 700mL Bottle in the Australian Market, I set out to prove whether it’s possible to find a good Scotch you can drink neat and enjoy…or whether you’re wasting your time. I start with one of the brands I’ve been really enjoying…Loch Lomond and their Reserve Single Blend Scotch. I also complain about the SWA regulations that don’t allow them to call it that, even though that’s exactly what it is.

Having reviewed the Ned’s Grand Reward in the Advent Calender from 2024, today I review their entry-level offering…an Australian Corn Whisky they simply call ‘Ned.’ Since it’s made in Australia it can’t be called a Bourbon but as an Ausskey, how does it stack up against the big names from the USA?
With John Chidgey.
Having reviewed all of the Whiskies in the 2024 Global Whisky Advent Calendar from Liquor Loot, it’s time to highlight my favourite five Whiskies from the calendar, and to provide an assessment in summary…was it worth it?
With John Chidgey.
Only the second Glendalough Irish Whisky I’ve tried, today I review their Double Barrel offering. It’s cheaper than my other favourite Glendalough, the Pot Still, but this one is a Single Grain. How does it compare?

The Dewars family built the Aberfeldy Distillery and began producing Whisky in 1898 and it has been a component of Dewars blends ever since. When Bacardi-Martini bought Aberfeldy in 1998 they shifted part of the focus to producing Single Malts. Today I review their 12 Year Single Malt offering. Can I pick the Dewars lineage, and on it’s own…how does it stack up?
